The Hair Styles of Tokio Hotel Bands

Tokio Hotel is a German pop rock band founded in Magdeburg, Germany in 2001 by singer Bill Kaulitz, guitarist (and brother) Tom Kaulitz, drummer Gustav Schäfer and bassist Georg Listing. The quartet have scored four number one singles and have released three number one albums in Germany, and in September 2008, they won in the US their first MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist.

According to Kaulitz, who was offered a blue pill while on tour in Taiwan:

“I first asked the seller ‘Do I look like someone who needs help with that?’” Tom told the German newspaper Bild. “He said ‘no’–but that I should nevertheless try it out. I popped one in.”

“I popped a few more pills, probably too many,” he said. “The next morning my head was pounding and everything in front of my eyes was blurry. It wasn’t fun any more. It was pretty bad.”

Viagra (chemical name Sildenafil) is a medication used in the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED), which is the inability to perform sexual intercourse. Sildenafil is in a class of medications called phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors. Sildenafil treats erectile dysfunction by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation (see below). This increased blood flow can cause an erection.
